A Modern Slant
Stonewater Homes bring big ideas home in a spectacular fashion.
Atestament to teamwork, innovation, and craftsmanship, Stonewater Homes plays a big part in executing ideas with distinction. Displaying a captivating façade that hints at the inner workings of décor, this Mount Royal home hosts its own significant slant on form and function, revealing what can happen when both are optimally engaged.
Leaving their traditional family home to experience the next level, this couple was determined to find an equitable balance of warmth in a modern setting. To this end, they reached out to Sean Mccormick of Jackson Mccormick Design Group, who assisted them in a vision that was evolved by creativity and encompassing style.
A home of compelling attractions and modern transitional design, this Mount Royal residence displays a spacious and airy decor that offers both warmth and casual elegance. Stately features draw the eye with a grand staircase directing flows, warm woods cladding surfaces, and massive glazing with unobstructed front-facing views that are mirrored out back, doubling entrancing views and natural light.
“The home is very bright and open, yet still feels intimate,” shares Bruce Johnson of Johnson & Associated Interior Design. “All of the common areas host a contrast of palette and texture.” Natural stone countertops and fireplace features mingle with floor-toceiling wood grains that define room transitions and host ambience on the main level.
Enjoying their relationship with Stonewater, Bruce admits that they shared a mutual respect. “Kevin and his team understand the value of the interior designer and we couldn’t have done it without Stonewater. If you have a builder who can’t articulate a vision, then you are lost. We know that we can count on them.”
Builders of full-custom homes that are as unique as those who live in them, Stonewater strives to ensure that their clients’ experience rivals their joy found in their new home. Assisted by a long-standing team of talented and professional trades who share a devotion to quality and detail, each Stonewater home is crafted to inspire and instill pride in ownership. “It’s all about the team,” shares partner Kevin Graham of Stonewater Homes. “The architect, designer, and homeowner—we all worked together to give our client the home that they wanted.” Reflecting the emerging architectural evolution of Mount Royal, the residence is revelation in design and a welcome addition to the community. “I love the architecture—the streetscape is truly phenomenal. Not modern like what one might expect, but with a sloped roof and great finish texture, plus the view of the staircase is stunning.”
Designed for entertainment, the staircase separates the dining from the great room while sustaining an open and inviting layout. The top floor contains a bedroom and office space, hosting its
own private enclave. A smooth build that was made easier by a collaborative spirit, Kevin Graham adds, “Flat roofs on a modern home can be limiting and often end up looking like a square box. Sloped roofs direct water flow and add overall appeal, offering interior interest and options for room integration.”
Delighted that their clients were happy and their goals accomplished, Stonewater Homes partner Chris Corriveau admits, “I’m always thrilled when a client feels that they have been listened to, recognized, and appreciated for the value they brought to the project.”
